- Short: MPEG audio datatype V1.1
- Author: GISBURN@w-specht.rhein-ruhr.de (Roland Mainz)
- Uploader: GISBURN@w-specht.rhein-ruhr.de (Roland Mainz)
- Type: util/dtype
-
- INTRODUCTION
- Datatypes class for MPEG audio streams.
-
- REQUIREMENTS
- - You need at least Kick/WB 3.0.
-
- - mc68020/68881 (required by the included "maplay" decoder).
- This datatype checks the CPU installed and rejects any attempt to
- open it if the CPU/FPU is not available.
-
- - ixemul.library V46.1 or higer (required by the included "maplay"
- decoder)
-
- - "datatypes/sound.datatype", >= V39.
-
- USAGE
- If the datatypes descriptor file was activated, any attempt to load
- a MPEG audio stream using GMultiView, MultiView, AmigaGuide or
- SwitchWindow will load and play the sample.
-
- If you want to save the current sample in mpegaudio.datatype's local
- format, use MultiView's "Project/Save As..." menu (or GMultiView's
- "Project/Save As Raw...").
- (NOT IMPLEMENTED YET)
-
- INSTALLATION
- After unpacking this archive:
- Because this version does not include an Installer script, you have
- to do the installation manually through the shell:
-
- - Unpack this archive and copy the "mpegaudio.datatype" to
- SYS:Classes/DataTypes:
-
- Copy CLONE FROM "mpegaudio.datatype" TO
- "SYS:Classes/DataTypes/mpegaudio.datatype"
-
- - Then copy the datatypes descriptor into the DEVS:DataTypes
- directory.
- If the descriptor already exists, you should not replace it,
- otherwise you may loose "toolnodes" and other settings stored in
- the existing descriptor.
-
- Copy CLONE FROM "MPEG Audio(%|.info)" TO DEVS:Datatypes/
-
- NOTE
- The datatype "hooks" on an external mpeg audio decoder.
- Currently, a own version of "maplay" is used here (which is
- __very__ slow).
- Usage of Stephane Tavendard's "mpega" would be possible, but
- due a bug in mpega (<=2.4) the output seems to be unuseable
- (for the main purpose "mpegaudio.datatype" was written for).
- The bug causes that if the sample is played back in sync with
- a video, the sample got from "mpega" runs a few secs behind
- the video, which looks/sounds very ugly. Using the included
- "maplay", this won't occur.
-
- SOURCE
- Source is fully included here.
